We heard recently that Nick Sachvie won the Men’s Canadian Open in squash and, of course, we did what we would do any time one of our junior players succeeds in their sport; we shared the news on Facebook, created a poster to go up on our Club Wall of Fame, and sent Nick a gift and congratulatory note.

It’s almost summer. No more rushing to get the bus, no more frantically looking for $20 for a school field trip that the kids didn’t tell you they needed until right this second. Instead, you’re faced with a new dilemma. The kids have been home for two weeks and they’ve already done everything (or so they say). It’s not long [...]

What are we all going to do when the days get shorter, the nights get colder and there’s that nasty white stuff all over the ground? I say it’s time to harvest our good intentions and lay in a supply [...]

Some days I just don’t have the energy for a full force workout, know what I mean? We’ve all been there, you have the best intentions of going to the gym and getting your sweat on either in class, cardio or weight room, but sometimes you simply can’t muster the strength do it.
